remind me to never come to summervile sc
haha and those were the only ones i could think of off the top of my head. there are a lot of others. in my group "Parks Racing" we have:
416 whp black srt-4 (down for the moment)
195whp n/a Mazda 6, 6 cylinder - soon to be turbo'd with g2071r and all suporting mods to push 300-350whp
327whp 03 WRX (just got methanol and has not tuned for it yet) - it's off the road right now, he blew up his 3rd gear
276whp white SRT-4, just got cams, apexi neo, tru boost gauge/controller, wideband. so he'll be quicker soon but not to much quicker b/c his turbo will be maxed out... once he puts this on he won't be able to go above 310-320whp on that stock turbo but once he puts an upgraded turbo on it (looking at 20g's right now) he'll be able to push 400+
250whp relatively stock 03 EVO VIII - being sold soon
322whp 05 Chevy Cobalt SS with upgraded twin screw blower (not tuned yet)
298whp black SRT-4 - just bought a gsxr 750 and hates cars now
and 434whp orange srt-4 stage 4r.

this is only my lil click and we are basically obsolete... lol the thing is that we have a navy and an air force base about 10 mins from us so all these millitary ppl have nothing to spend their money on but their car and they do....

I agree, ive worked hard for everything i have. And i pay my own way. I was fortunate enough to have my parents help with college, and gettin my first couple of cars free, but they were an 89 blazer and a 91 honda hatchback. Basically beater cars they were getting rid of.

I know what you mean, I have worked my *** of to get where i am in life.
I cant say that I havent had help along the way, if it werent for my parents I wouldnt have half the stuff I have, or wouldnt have had the opportunities I've had. I always tried to repay their generosity with hard work, and show them that I appreciate it. Nothing was ever a hand out to me, it was always said to me like this "Son, we dont mind doing this for you, and helping you here, but having us do this for you means you need to work even harder than you are now"
I have made my fair share of mistakes in life, and have paid for them dearly, however hard work always pays off, sooner or later

I agree with joshewuhh, sadly the rs (mine) and the gs are merely show off cars, that engine isnt quite as fast, but it works for me, since everything i see here are crx's modded with steel pipes where the catalyst should be (racing is soooo overrated here, and mods so dumb they even take away the cats for free at some shops)
must be nice to only be up against CRX's and some slow honda's.... around here we have a600whp STI, 565whp EVO, 100whp Supra, 2 100+whp Skylines (one RWD one AWD), a couple of sick nasty WS6's, 2 bad *** built vette's, one TT vette, a built cam'd 200shot sprayin camero SS, 3 or 4 400+whp srt-4's, and 1 very very nasty 2.4l kenny bell sc'd cobra built, sprayin, just nasty but nobody knows his hp. last weekend we had a white EVO up here at our normal gathering point on Sat. nights with AMS all over it. so hell if CRX's were all i had to worry about here... i'd keep my lil 420a lol
wow 100hp? LOL i hope thats an error...anyhow we gots some baddas supras and skylines here in MO as well believe it or not My neighbor has a 500whp DSM to boot and he used to have a 98 supra TT.
